Lambeth Council events team are in discussions with the organisers of Lovebox and Field Day who have met with local residents, park stakeholders and councillors. As with all proposed events, there are several layers of rigorous scrutiny that include licensing, Safety Advisory Group and planning permission before an event can proceed. Throughout that process, the views and concerns of residents are carefully considered. For more information on the events policy, protocols and processes download our EventLambeth Events Guide Lambeth Council’s Events Strategy, adopted in 2016 , limits the number of major events in the borough’s parks and open spaces and also guaranteed a proportion of the income from commercial events is reinvested in parks, supporting community events and infrastructure. An event such as Field Day could see tens of thousands of pounds going back to Brockwell Park but our priority is that events in Lambeth are safe, well run and the impact on the landscape and residents is carefully managed.
